Gubbio’s history pre-dates the Roman Empire to when it was, as Ikuvium, a major town for the ancient Umbrians. Now a city of 30,000, Gubbio has historical attractions spanning many periods. The 14th-century Palazzo dei Consoli houses Umbria’s largest collection of Roman artifacts. Gubbio’s most important date is May 15. Every year for centuries on that day, the Corsa dei Ceri has taken place: Three teams of twenty, each carrying three large wooden statues, race through the streets.

Need to change trains towards the end of the journey,but well worth the trouble. Assisi is a lovely medieval Hill Top city,with a great Cathedral,holding the tomb of St Francis. Everything about the City is wonderful,but very,very steep hills....if you are not a good walker...be aware! If you are,then the sheer wonder of all these winding medieval streets and shops,will pay you back for your effort!

A wonderful walk up to this lovely Basilica. Nobody else was walking, they were all driving so missed half the fun!
